And we will ask why so many more people over the age of 65 are

getting married these days. CCTV footage has emerged

daylight local time yesterday. The accused man is in police custody.

:00:50.:00:54.

They believe they've found the main culprit, to put in the words,

:00:55.:00:58.

because they found compelling evidence including CCTV camera

:00:59.:01:02.

footage showing the accused with the victim as well as the two wheeled

have been in touch with British and Irish embassies but are still

:01:11.:01:14.

awaiting the results of the postmortem examination. The victim

:01:15.:01:21.

who was in her 20s is from County Donegal. She was reported to have

:01:22.:01:25.

been found with injuries to her face and head. The postmortem will also

determine if she had been sexually assaulted. Her parish priest says

:01:31.:01:36.

her family have been left devastated by the death. They are

understandably grieving. The are overwhelmed by the sense of loss.

:01:45.:01:51.

They are supported by consular staff and by the community and people

:01:52.:01:57.

around them but nevertheless, as with all grief and loss, there is a

:01:58.:02:01.

terrible loneliness is attached to it. Daniel had been a pupil before

:02:02.:02:05.

going to university in Liverpool. Bonfire material dumped

:02:06.:02:09.

on a new multi-million pound greenway in east Belfast has been

cleared after a month-long Workers from the Environment Agency

at Connswater Community Greenway. There were more than 100 wood

been here for weeks. In spite of complaints

:02:52.:02:56.

about the mess on the new ?40 million Greenway, the authorities

:02:57.:02:58.

were reluctant to intervene. Then last night, a local

:02:59.:03:01.

agreement was reached. Community worker Robert Osborne said

:03:02.:03:05.

the decision had widespread support. There is a lot of money being spent

:03:06.:03:17.

here and they did not want to see that going to waste.

:03:18.:03:20.

If we make our community better, it is better for us.

:03:21.:03:22.

So how are you able to persuade people to allow this

:03:23.:03:25.

They understand that their community comes first,

:03:26.:03:28.

No deal, we have just come to an agreement.

:03:29.:03:41.

There is no money or anything involved.

:03:42.:03:44.

It is just between us and the community.

:03:45.:03:46.

Would there be a payback for the community?

:03:47.:03:48.

Definitely, from us, we will help the community out anyway we can,

:03:49.:03:56.

Although some of the bonfire material was set alight, the damage

:03:57.:04:02.

has been minimal. Belfast City Council say they are confident this

:04:03.:04:06.

new Greenway will soon look as good as new.

:04:07.:04:10.

The Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, has welcomed comments

:04:11.:04:12.

by the Brexit Secretary, David Davis, that the government

:04:13.:04:14.

is not intending to erect border posts after the UK leaves

:04:15.:04:18.

Speaking in Washington a short time ago, Mr Kenny said he was glad

:04:19.:04:23.

I am glad to have heard the comments by Secretary Davies. We have

:04:24.:04:37.

political agreement between the government is lead and the British

:04:38.:04:41.

government that there will be no return to a hard border, the board

:04:42.:04:48.

with Customs and posts. I am glad that that has been clarified. On

:04:49.:04:54.

behalf of the British government and Secretary of State. That is a

:04:55.:05:00.

commencement point for us, no return to a hard border.

:05:01.:05:02.

Air accident investigators from the UK are to join

:05:03.:05:04.

the search for the black box from the Irish Coast

:05:05.:05:06.

Guard helicopter that crashed off County Mayo.

:05:07.:05:08.

It's understood they will bring specialised equipment

:05:09.:05:10.

Three crew members are still missing.

:05:11.:05:12.

Irish naval vessels stayed at sea overnight in the area

:05:13.:05:25.

where debris from the helicopter has been found.

:05:26.:05:27.

In the distance, Black Rock, close to where the helicopter

:05:28.:05:30.

At first flight, Coast Guard helicopters returned

:05:31.:05:35.

to resume the search for the missing colleagues.

:05:36.:05:42.

Wreckage from the helicopter was brought ashore throughout yesterday.

:05:43.:05:48.

Last night, militants arrived to be briefed on the search operation.

:05:49.:05:56.

Earlier in the day, Captain Dara Fitzpatrick was recovered from the

:05:57.:06:00.

sea. Also on board was the chief pilot and winchman.

:06:01.:06:04.

Dara Fitzpatrick's sister, mother and father say

:06:05.:06:06.

We feel like the lucky ones now because we have her.

:06:07.:06:14.

We can kiss her, hold her, hold her hand.

:06:15.:06:18.

Rescue 116 was often involved in missions in Northern Ireland.

:06:19.:06:21.

The tragedy has been felt at the Coast Guard

:06:22.:06:23.

We were one massive search and rescue family.

:06:24.:06:36.

We had a visit from the Queen when Dara was here.

:06:37.:06:42.

As the search continues, so too does the agonising wait for news.

:06:43.:06:49.

Tonight, hundreds of bike fans got the opportunity to meet some

:06:50.:06:51.

of their motorcycling heroes in Coleraine as the official

:06:52.:06:54.

countdown to this year's international Northern West 200

:06:55.:06:57.

A star-studded line-up of teams and riders has been revealed for this

:06:58.:07:11.

year's International North West 201 of the real stars of the show will

:07:12.:07:17.

be here for the 24th time. That's right. It seems like yesterday the

:07:18.:07:22.

first time I came all those years ago in the 90s soap three decades I

:07:23.:07:25.

have been racing here, great night to night, great to have or the fans

:07:26.:07:31.

out and new comers and old guys a new guise. It is poised for an

:07:32.:07:37.

incredibly good Northwest 200. I imagine that is one of the big

:07:38.:07:41.

attractions for you, racing at over 200 mph. Very special, unique, fans

:07:42.:07:50.

can get closer. It is amazing. The first time last year, it went over

:07:51.:07:56.

200, I did 204, which was a thrill. It is only a few away. Before we

:07:57.:08:04.

know it, we are packing the campus and the trucks up and hurling down

:08:05.:08:10.

that road at 200 mph. And we will have comprehensive coverage online,

:08:11.:08:14.

on TV and on radio and for the first time ever, the Northwest 200 will be

:08:15.:08:18.

broadcast on BBC network television. It has all been a bit dull in the

:08:19.:08:30.

weather today, grey and cloudy not a lot happening. This picture from our

:08:31.:08:34.

Weather Watcher sums up the story for today. As we go into the

:08:35.:08:38.

overnight period though, we will see more in the way of rain. Light and

:08:39.:08:42.

drizzly to begin with and mostly confined for the higher ground but

:08:43.:08:46.

it sets the tone for what is to come tomorrow morning. We will see rain

:08:47.:08:50.

through the first part of Thursday. The skies were clear and bright

:08:51.:09:01.

later on but that comes with a sting in the tail. We will see our warmest

:09:02.:09:03.

temperatures joined the morning while this rain is with us. Once

:09:04.:09:06.

that clears away though, we move into cooler air and those daytime

:09:07.:09:09.

highs will drop away through the afternoon on Thursday. You can see a

:09:10.:09:12.

better on this wider view. The warmest temperatures in front of

:09:13.:09:16.

that weather front, clearer, cold behind, even the chance of a few

:09:17.:09:21.

wintry showers. A pretty cool with showers across the whole of Ireland.

:09:22.:09:27.

Overnight, we are in that cold air mass and is the showers coming, much

:09:28.:09:32.

cooler night and we have seen of light. Friday, said Patrick's date,

:09:33.:09:38.

not a pretty picture at all. The rain coming into the day, heaviest

:09:39.:09:42.

in the West, the best chance of any drier conditions for the East but

:09:43.:09:47.

virtually all of Ireland will see rain as we go through the day and

:09:48.:09:52.

unfortunately, St Patrick's day is the least good of the next few days

:09:53.:09:53.

without rain at its heaviest. Our next BBC Newsline is at 6:25am

:09:54.:09:58.

during Breakfast here on BBC One.
